VOTE FOB ALL THE NOMINEES
For twsnty-three years, says the Fred
erick Citizen, the Democratic party
sought to gain control of national af.
fairs. During the weary years of the
war the struggle of the party was one
Of mere existence. After the war pc.
riod. oppressed by arbitrary measures
and denied even the privileges of q
minority. came the sad decade of car.
pet-bagism in the South and persecu.
tlon in the North. With q heroism
and devotion equaled only by the pa.
triotic tenacity with which the Mon.
tenegrins have clung for FIVE hundred
years to the doctrine that Justice can
never rest until the lands from which
they have been driven are returned,
the grand old organization which ad.
ministered the government for more
than sixty years has maintained its
struggle for supremacy. From a con.
dition Of helplessness of 1865 it has
risen to a grand majority in 1876. It
treachery, knavery and criminality of
the Republican party, it was denied
the fruits of its hard-earned victory.
Swindled and defrauded and dis
hesrtsned, the party set to work at
once to recover lost ground. Unlike
the Old Guard in one respect. the
Democratic party neither dies nor sur
renders. It's existence is necessary to
the existence Of the government.
When the fat went forth in 1877 that
the representative of the Democratic
party who had been elected President
would not be permitted to take his
seat. every honest Democrat in the
land felt that his political duty would
never be fulfilled until the party
which inflicted the wrong had been
hurled from power. In 1884 State
lines were drawn for the struggle. and
Grover Cleveland was placed in the
executive chair. The preliminary
battle will be fought this year for his
endorsement and Maryland should
not encourage his enemies by slectinQ
the Republican ticket. Candidates
are brought to the front under all
sorts of disguises, all sorts of isms are
combined, and all sorts of insidious
devices are resorted to in the hope
that Democrats will be blinded to the
great issues at stake. The welfare o
the country and the success of the ma
tional Democratic party are depen'
dent on the result of the Maryland
/ elections this Fall. As We have Al
ready said, it is the duty Of Demo
Gratis to sink all individual and per
sonal feeling and vote for all the reg
ular Democratic nominees.

JUSTICE WOODS DEATH.

Justice Woods, of the United States
Supreme Court, died at his residence in
Washington on Saturday. His death
was not unexpected, as he has long been
an invalid and incapable of work. Jus
tice Woods was one of Hayes sp-
pointees. He was Buckeye by birth.
but belonged to that numerous family
known as Southern carpet-baggers, he
having gone to Alabama to help ire
construct the State. He was appointed
IN 1880, and was So years of age at the
time of his death.
The death of Justice Woods will
give President Cleveland his first oppor-
tunity to appoint to the SupTems Bench,
and besides will give something Of a
Democratic leayen to that tribunal. To
day Justice Field is the only Democratln
the Supreme Court. 1t is highly probable
that southern man will b. appointed
TO succeed Woods, as there is but one
southsrner-Harlan, of Kentucky-on
the behch, the other seven being
credited to Ohio. Iowa, California, New
Jersey, Massachusetts, and New York.
IN the ordinary course of events, Presi-
dent Cleveland should appoint two or
three Supreme Court Judges before the
expiration OF his first term. Bradley Is
"A years old, and has been seventeen
years on the bench; Miller is II, and has
been twenty-five years justice; Field
and Chief Justice Waite are IL. Batch
ford is 81. Matthews is GO, Gray is 50,
and Harlan is 81. 1t will be remarkable
If all these old men shall live out CieYe

LYNCHING MUST GO.

Associate Justice Henderson evidently
agrees with the jury which tried the
Tintic lynchers. in the opinion that
lynching should be made odious. His
Honor, on Saturday passed sentence On
the six men who were recently con-
victed in his court of IynchIng Fisher
last year. Two were sent to to the Pen
ltentiary for eleven years, three for
seven years and one for five years. We
believe their sentence Will have salu
tary effect on those people who are given
to taking the law into their own hands,
and wreaking summary punishment on
individuals, as has been done in this
Territory on three.or four occasions. The
conviction and punishment of these
men will cool the ardor of, the reckless
and give the vengeful to understand
that the law can be made to reach mobs
as certainly as it can the isolated
citizen; and will be a notice to a certain
element that if the law is unable to as
sert itself, there had better be failure
Of Justice than an exercise of power
lawlessly.
All good citizens hope that no lynch
ing shall hereafter disgrace Utah. We
hope that nothing will occur to arouse
any local community to the lynching
degree of frenzy, and we hope that if
anything of the kind does occur, the
fate of the Tintic unfortunates will
come to the mind of the mob aud pre-
vent the threatened outbreal, Utah
has set a worthy example to the
other Territories, in the matter
of preserving order and main
tanning the supremacy Of the law.
Judge Lynch has held many levees in
ali the surrounding commemorative,
and little if any effort has been made to
punish him; but here in Utah he has
been kept in pretty close subsection,
and now some of his active votaries
have been caught and punished. All
law-loving citizens are proud of the
Territory's record, and this last work.
the conviction of the Tintic lynchers,
is something upon which the commun-'
;tv can heartily congratulate itself.

II PRESIDENT Arthur could commune
cate with this world, about the first
thing he would do would be to express
his thanks to friends for not doing as the
friends of others have done and are
doing IN the matter of monument.
Some of the admirers Of Arthur have
been quietly at work some time, raising
fund for the erection of monument
to him; they have not sent out begging
letters, and have made no ostentatious
and indecent display, but have let it
be known by the admirers of the
late President that a monument was
to be erected to his memory, and the
result has been a generous response.
President Arthur did little in life which
should call for a monument to COM
memorate his deeds, but he did as much
as some others whose friends are issuing
frantic appeals to the public to con-
tribute to memorial funds. Arthur was
a gentleman, and had keen sense of
the prophecies, hence the manner of
raising the money for his monument is
in keeping with his own ideas of things

a CATHOLIC priest at Newark, n. j.,
has forbidden LADY commitment Of
his flock to sing for a Protestant con-
gregation, and some of the newspapers
are denouncing him in savage terms,
saying it is no more improper for q
Catholic to sing in Protestant church
than for a Catholic workman to carry
bricks to build Protestant church.
If singing is part of the religious SER
vices, as it unquestionably is, or it
should be abolished in churches, there
is wide difference enthusiastically be-
tween Catholic singing for Protestant
worshipers and Catholic laboring for
Protestant employers.

his article on the Disabilities of the
Jews, ito reason from the opinions
which a man proposes to his feelings
and his actions; and in fact no person
is ever such fool to reason thus. eI-
cept when he wants a pretext to prose-
cute his neighbors. People do not
argue from the same premises to the
sane conclusions; no one lives up to
his standard of right; and in the case
of the Mormon who, though believing
in polygamy isready to promise to obey
the laws, we must not infer insincerity
or perjury, because the troubles that
cluster around the polygamist are
viewed by many men as sufficient rea-
son for postponing the practice of their
religion in this respect, until the Lord
shall override.
Now as to revelation, we would ask,
would not you, Judge Hende~""n or
Judge Zane, or would not any n
among you, enter into polygamy,
obedience to what you believed to be
divine revelation and commando" IL
does not matter that you now believe
polygamy to be immoral, or that
you deny revelation; the assump-
ton IS, and this is the precise
assumption you apply to the Mormon,
that you firmly believe that God COM
manded it, would you hesitate between
such command and a law contrary
thereto? You would not; no honest
man would. Such a test would dis
franchise every candid citizen of the
United States, and yet is deemed a
reasonable rule applied to Mormons.
Is it possible that in the nation
whose coin bears the inscription sin
God We Trust" man must deny the
authority of God as condition pre-.
cedent to citizenship
When the Latter-day Saint assures
you of his intention to obey the laws;
when you look around you and see
thousands of Mormons who do not
practice polygamy; when you have
many others tell you they know MOTH
ing of the principle; when you are so
peculiarly informed as to the dangers
that beset the path of the polygamist;
when the applicant is willing to swear
that he will obey the law, there is but
one course open to you, and that is to
naturalize.
If you 60 farther and demand that
the applicant shall say that he will sub
ordinate God, his God, if you please,
which is the only God any man can
have, to the Edmunds-Tuckerl law, you
are, disguise the fact as you may,

the Court goes still further, and asks if
the applicant would enter polygamy in
obedience to what he believes to be a
revelation from God. Quite naturally.
the candidate answers that under such
circumstances he would obey God in
preference to man.
Whereupon the Court remarks that
it cannot consent to naturaIize a man
who is not prepared to swear obedience
to the laws, even under such a contin-
gency.
The applicant is rejected either be-
cause of his belief in polygamy or be,
cause OF his determination to follow
revelation, or, what is the same thing
because OF his belief in revelation. If
be his belief in the rightfulDess of DO

from the Chronicle will give most of
the evidence against Green: Solicitor
Wilson opened the case by making a
few remarks to the jurors. He said,

it necessary that you should have my
views. | expect to prove to you that
on the 22d of August 1887, the house
of Mr.. W. j. Yates was entered; that
before the family retired to rest, the
house was securely fastened; that after
that time the house was entered
through a back window, and that
five dollar note, a watch and gold
badge, and other articles of personal
property were taken. That on We'd
nesday night of the said week, between
the time of II and 1 o'clock, the
prisoner was seen in possession of
this property; that the prisoner had
been seen near the residence of Mr.:
Yates; that he was in an impecunious
condition; that he was seen with

delivered to the clerk of the Buford
House in pawn for board bill; that
the pin was found in his possession;
that he evaded the search of the officers

statement he made, the State of North
